The Scope of Clinical Anaplastology
Clinical Fabricators
A Certified Clinical Anaplastologist (CCA) works directly with a patient upon a referral from a physician. After a consultation the CCA will devise a treatment plan for the best prosthetic design. A custom made prosthesis is molded to patient anatomy. The CCA has the expertise to create a life like and anatomially correct prosthetic restoration that simulates the anatomical feature the patient has lost.
Clinical Anaplastologists are point of care (POC) manufacturers who use art and technology to provide custom made patient specific external facial and body prostheses.
